Résumé du poste

Cohere is seeking an Applied AI Engineer, Agents & Automations, to build AI-powered product experiences inside North, Cohere’s enterprise AI workspace platform.

You will design interfaces for interacting with models, implement evals and feedback systems, and partner with product, design, and customer teams to deliver reliable workflows in real enterprise environments.

Qualifications

• Shipped LLM-powered or AI-assisted product experiences into production.
• Strong software engineer who enjoys backend systems, user-facing product, data, evals, and model behavior.
• Think in terms of user outcomes and system behavior, not just model metrics.
• Have strong product taste and care about interface/workflow integration with models.
• Enjoy debugging real-world failures and turning learnings into durable improvements.
• Like owning ambiguous problems end-to-end across system boundaries.

Responsabilités

• Build AI-powered product experiences that help users create, configure, evaluate, and improve workflows across North.
• Design and ship new interfaces for interacting with models, including workflow builders, proactive assistants, review flows, and collaboration patterns.
• Build eval, observability, and feedback systems that measure AI experiences in enterprise workflows.
• Improve AI reliability through product design, prompting, context construction, tool-use, instrumentation, and feedback loops.
• Turn production failures, user feedback, and real-task data into better product behavior, eval suites, and signals for modelling.
• Collaborate with modelling, product, design, customer teams to define what good means for workflows and ship measurable improvements.
• Help decide when a workflow needs a constrained product experience, a better model interface, or deeper modelling investment.

Description du poste

Who are we?

Cohere is the leading security-first enterprise AI company. We build cutting-edge foundation AI models and end-to-end products that are designed to solve real-world business problems.

We’re training and deploying frontier models for enterprises who are building AI systems. We believe that our work is instrumental to the widespread adoption of AI and we are looking for folks that want to be part of that.

We obsess over what we build. Each one of us is responsible for contributing to increasing the capabilities of our models and the value they drive for our customers. Cohere is a team of researchers, engineers, designers, and more, who are all passionate about their craft.

We are a global technology company headquartered in Toronto with key offices in London, New York City, San Francisco, Montreal, Paris, Berlin and Seoul. Join us!

Why this role?

North is Cohere's cutting-edge AI workspace platform, designed to revolutionize the way enterprises utilize AI. It offers a secure and customizable environment, allowing companies to deploy AI while maintaining control over sensitive data. North integrates seamlessly with existing workflows, providing a trusted platform that connects AI agents with workplace tools and applications.

Some of our most important work is making the agents and AI-powered experiences inside North genuinely useful in the workflows customers rely on every day. These systems become valuable when users can build with them, steer them, inspect their work, recover from errors, and trust them to complete messy tasks inside real enterprise environments.

This role is about making those AI experiences reliable, useful, and production-ready. You’ll work with product engineering, modelling and design to turn model capability into reliable, user-facing systems: agent builders, eval frameworks, proactive intelligence, and new interfaces for collaborating with AI. Sometimes that means shipping a new product surface, sometimes a better eval or feedback loop, sometimes prompt and context experiments, and sometimes redesigning the workflow so the model is being asked to do the right thing.

As an Applied AI Engineer, Agents & Automations, you will:

• Build AI-powered product experiences that help users create, configure, evaluate, and improve workflows across North.
• Design and ship new interfaces for interacting with models, including workflow builders, proactive assistants, review flows, and other human-AI collaboration patterns.
• Build eval, observability, and feedback systems that measure whether AI experiences succeed in real enterprise workflows.
• Improve AI reliability through product design, prompting, context construction, tool-use strategies, instrumentation, and feedback loops.
• Turn production failures, user feedback, and real-task data into better product behavior, stronger eval suites, regression tests, and signals for modelling.
• Work closely with modelling, product, design, customer teams, and domain experts to define what “good” means for specific workflows and ship measurable improvements.
• Help decide when a workflow needs a more constrained product experience, a better model interface, a stronger eval, or a deeper modelling investment.

Example problems you might work on include helping users build AI automations from natural language, creating evals for multi-step agent workflows, adding proactive intelligence inside the product, or creating interfaces that make agent behavior easier to inspect, steer, and trust.

You May Be a Good Fit If

• You have shipped LLM-powered, agent-powered, or AI-assisted product experiences into production, and improved them based on real-world feedback.
• You are a strong software engineer who enjoys working across backend systems, user-facing product, data, evals, and model behavior.
• You think in terms of user outcomes and system behavior, not just model metrics.
• You have strong product taste and care about how the interface, workflow, and model work together to help users succeed.
• You enjoy debugging messy real-world failures and turning what you learn from production, user testing, and evals into durable improvements.
• You enjoy owning ambiguous problems end-to-end and working across system boundaries to ship something genuinely useful.
